UW rescind??

Hi so recently I was admitted to UW and I committed!

I am really worried that my acceptance might be rescinded because when I self-reported my grades I did not include one.

In 8th grade, I took algebra 1 as high school credit but I failed and got like a 58 and a 71 which was about a 65 average so I retook the class freshman year. In 9th grade, I got like a 88 and a 93 with an average of 91.

In my coalition application, I only recorded my 9th-grade algebra 1 grade because I figured I retook the class and it wouldn’t matter to my transcript. But, I looked at my unofficial transcript and my old algebra 1 grade is on there (its excluded from my gpa though).

So I am really scared that I will get my decision revoked because I forgot to put the first class… I don’t know why I didn’t I assumed it wouldn’t show up ): please help I’m scared and confused.

First of all congrats on your acceptance to UW. Secondly, do not even think about rescinding, or worry about your old algebra 1 grade if you are committed to UW. it looks like your high school has a policy on repeating a course and having the highest grade imputed into your GPA (and exclusion of the bad one to your GPA). If you forgot to include both classes on your coalition app it’s not the end of the world, you did send an official transcript right? Moreover, UW admission also calculates your GPA based on your highest grade if you repeated a course. What one admission rep told me when I called to ask. So relax, and plan your next four years at ease.

Thank you! I haven’t sent my official transcript yet because I was waiting until May to finish my senior year so I can send my final transcript. They only have my self reported grades. I am thinking about emailing them and telling them about this mistake. I am really worried but thank you for calming me a bit.

@Seam95 forgot to tag you

@lovesandhugs of course! And ah I see. Well at the end of the day it’s a course whose grade has no impact on your GPA, so it’s a neutral mistake. Call or email them telling them you forgot that the algebra 1 course you took in 8th grade was for HS credit. And you found out it was when you looked at your unofficial transcript. It honestly should not be grounds for them rescinding your admittance.

@Seam95 Thank you for your help. I will email them and let them know of my mistake and I hope for the best.
